From the award-winning director and production team that brought Conor McPherson's "The Weir" to our stage, comes another quiet, haunting story by the same playwright. In Dublin, a guilt-ridden man reaches out to a therapist after seeing the ghost of his recently deceased wife. Wrestling with his own demons, the therapist can only do so much to help. Routine visits between the two men quickly become a gripping struggle to survive, changing both of them for the rest of their lives.
Produced by Nanette Reynolds (Doubt, The Iceman Cometh,
Blood Brothers, The Weir, Art)
Directed by Angie Anderson (The Iceman Cometh, The Weir)

Just in time for the holidays, comes this family story of a high-spirited orphan girl who is mistakenly sent to a childless couple that thought they were getting a boy to help on their farm. What follows is a series of trials and tribulations that almost cause them to send Anne back to the orphanage. However, her constant chatter, romantic imaginings and irresistible charm convince them that she is the best thing that ever happened to them, and Anne finds a loving family.
